I agree they do not have enough room to be on the even footing with D* now, but they can add more if they want to, the fact they are not, indicates to me they don't see the urgency yet.
You are the first new sub I read that got a free HDDVR upon request. I have called D* several times and asked the same, even told them I am an E* sub and have free HDDVRs from E*, would like to know if D* can offer a similar deal for me to switch, no luck so far.
Not enough to be on equal footing and MAYBEEEEEE room for one or two more. I could be proven wrong, but again i get back to them taking down a HD PPV to add TBS. No logic in that.
Ive read alot about new ones getting it in threads here and at DBS.
